Turok 2 free download full version

It's the nearest thing you'll get to Quake pfiti the N64 - well, at least until Quake 2 itself arrives. With the smaller deathmatch levels, you are - especially with four players - never more than a corner away from running into somebody with a very large gun. This makes things a lot more frantic, and the emphasis on the vertical axis - several of the deathmatch arenas are multilevel extravaganzas, with plenty of platforms for sniping - means that you can be attacked from almost any angle.

Some arenas even have underwater sections, where combat is wrought with harpoon guns and torpedoes, that really turn things on their head! The only disappointing thing about Turok 2's deathmatch is the lack of options, which in Goldeneye allowed players to create the perfect custom killing zone. All Turok 2 offers is a weapons screen where the appearance or otherwise of particular bits of hardware can be set - fed up of being whacked in the back of the head by the Cerebral Bore?

Switch it off! The equivalent of the Licence To Kill mode would have been fun, though to be fair this can be simulated if players concentrate on getting instantly-lethal head shots. The actual characters are nondescript as well - hunting some generic dinosaur bloke isn't nearly as engaging as chasing down Oddjob.

Piffling little quibbles like these don't prevent Turok 2's deathmatch from being fantastic, and good enough reason to buy the game on its own. Is it better than Goldeneye'! Arguments raged over this point for quite some time. Ultimately, it's probably as good - the characters don't have the instant recognition value of Goldeneye, but the speed and furious nature of combat compensate, and the sheer glorious sadism of Frag Tag is what videogames are all about!

In the case of Turok 2, size definitely isn't everything. The sprawl of the levels makes getting around a long-winded business, and most of the time you know that the only thing at the end of it will be another switch or a teleport. What's missing from Turok 2 is something that Goldeneye had by the bucketful - involvement. Rare's game had all kinds of different objectives, hidden secrets, little quirks and opportunities to try alternate ways to complete the missions. Turok 2? Kill enemies, find switches, reach teleport.

It's Doom, basically - a glorious-looking update of Doom, but Doom nevertheless. Fortunately, the deathmatch game compensates - if you can get three friends around they won't want to leave, and at the very least the one-player game offers stunning eye candy and a lot of challenge. Besides, at the price, you can't go wrong.

It's just a shame that the fabulous advances in visuals and audio weren't accompanied by similar strides in gameplay.

For you Turok fans out there, get ready for the sequel due out sometime in August. Visually, we have nothing to work off of except a good number of conceptual sketches, renders and level designs. Expect a whole new cast of bad muthas to shoot holes through we've seen no dinos so far , and plenty of interesting environments to explore. We'll keep you up to speed as we get more info on Turok 2. Big, brash and very violent.

But what I really like is that you can't just run around shooting everything in sight and expect to get away with it. Turok's just as much about stealth and strategy as it is spilling monsters' brains over the floor although there's quite a bit of that, too. Because it's the only game in the world where you can blow a hole the size of a football in a giant green monster's stomach, and slice teeny weeny dinosaurs into chipolatas with a razor-sharp claw.

I'm still trying to find the cheat to make the kids killable though. Pee-yoo, wooor! That's the Cerebral Bore, that is. A missile that gets fired from the barrel of a gun that's the size of a television. That's the sound it makes as it lodges into an enemy's head and starts burrowing into their brain. And that's when it explodes.

There's just something very special about brain-draining enormous mutant monsters. Buckets of blood, bags of guns and kids who say "Thanks Turok" in chirpy Waltons-esque accents when you rescue them: superb! Originally, you may recall, Turok 2 was pencilled in for late October, but problems optimising the code - and ensuring that the awesome multiplayer ran super-smoothly - meant the game unexpectedly slipped a month. Which, obviously, means our exclusive review of the game was a couple of months back now.

But, because we haven't stopped playing it since and, in the process, discovered tonnes of extras , we've decided to provide a refresher. Read on and find out why you just have to have this game on your Chrimbo list. Yes, yes Basically, all characters can carry weapons except the Raptor whose arsenal o' death relies almost entirely on a natty pair of claws and speedy hind legs. The three versions of Turok, Adon and the Primagen seem to be fairly equally matched, while the Endtrail and Fireborn behave similarly, i.

Flesh Eater and monstrous Purr-linn. All fairly self-explanatory except, of course, the Assault Rifle which is quite similar to a rapid-fire PP7. The Torpedo and Harpoon Gun can only be used underwater.

Our advice? Use the Cerebral Bore. As much as you can. Bloodlust is an all-out fight to the death. Frag Tag sees one of you as a monkey - or, more obviously, 'it'. As 'it', you need to reach a central warp which then makes one of the other players 'it'. As 'it' you can't operate any weapons; your primary objective is to reach the warp.

However, we did manage to stick an arrow through the eye of the monkey. Top fun! Team Mode is two against two, or three against one. One team becomes blue and the other red. Your objective? To maim plentifully. Through the woods. Sinking island. Nancy Drew: The Captive Curse. Destination Primus Vita - Ep. IObit Uninstaller. WinRAR bit. Internet Download Manager. VLC Media Player.

Strange as it may sound, the camera buttons control your movement, while the analog stick controls your view for aiming. I wish there was an option to switch to a more conventional control setting.

Still, the enemies and animation are superb. I've got to hand to it Turok; it's got some of the smoothest graphics in a Doom-style shooter yet. Still, I can't help but be disgruntled by the utter lack of activity in the game. Rarely do you meet a horde of characters at one time, like a whole pack of raptors. The difficulty lies in the insanely perilous falls and strangely powerful enemies.

My opinion is that the current graphics engine of Turok just isn't powerful enough to handle such details. To cover this up, a very large section of your screen is covered in fog. While this is a neat trick to mask the weaknesses, it's overused and too much of the playfield gets lost in it. A good blast with excellently destructive guns let down by massive fogging and too much reliance on jumping onto tiny platforms. Screen-filling dinosaurs, ludicrously bloody violence and some breathtaking weapons.

A phenomenally good game. Given the dismal record of third party games on the Nintendo 64 thus far, it's little wonder that such high hopes are being cherished for Turok from Acclaim.

Okay, so there's a decent ice I hockey game, and a new improved Doom. But this is less than we expect from the so-called Dream Team. It's somewhat astonishing then that a company with Acclaim's troubled recent history holds the torch for the rest of gaming. Iguana has lavished attention on the title and all the delights of anti-aliasing, gouraud shading and mip-mapping have been thrown in to offer an environment as visually stunning as it is mysterious. Okay, when all is said and done it's just another first person shoot-'em-up.

But the major difference here is that it's the best looking first person game yet devised and this is in a field of hundreds. Turok also offers unprecedented options in terms of weaponry 14 pieces of hardware and a choice of ammo and the best looking bad guys yet. Plus, you get to indulge in Lara Croft-style activities such as jumping and swimming.

Does it all work? Up to a point. Those enemies are gorgeous and the death scenes are well-crafted. But, unlike say Doom, you're rarely fighting more than one at a time on-screen. This is limiting and inevitably cramps enjoyment.

The jumping and swimming stuff, while adding some degree of depth, is not executed brilliantly and can seem disjointed. But well have to see what has changed with the full review copy; sadly withheld from this magazine. These are criticisms which may well be levelled against the game when it falls into the hands of reviewers. But, while valid, they may miss out on the essence of Turok.

It's a violent bloody game, but it moves at a lighter pace than other shoot-'em-ups, and there's a greater element of exploration required. This is no bad thing. The story itself follows the adventures of an American Indian wandering a lost world populated by dinosaurs and their guardians. Acclaim lifted the entire plot from a series of semi-popular comics books; one of Its subsidiaries publishes from New York.

Apart from the world you explore, there is a great deal of fun to be had with moveable elements. Firstly, the enemies.

These range from brutish humans to evil skeletons, and from dim-witted but strong dinosaurs, to those which are armed to their incisors. As is often the case, different weapons suit different enemies though it's more often than not strategy which counts the most. Many of the stomping enemies are not so tough from a distance whatever you're shooting. The misty world adds an element of surprise and naked fear to all this. Something horrible is always just a few seconds away.

Those enemies in Turok are all polygons, and each one has a number of death-moves which will delight as well as relieve all players. Ah yes. You begin with all the usual guff knife, bow, pistol, shotgun etc.. There are eight levels in Turok with a number of settings, though jungles and over-grown corridors are much In evidence. Although the game is linear, the size and complexity of each new world make it convincingly three-dimensional.

One useful touch is the ability to bring the map on-screen -super-imposed upon the live action -which is pretty much mandatory in some of the later levels. With just a few weeks left In development. Acclaim looks to have a winner on its hands. Prospects: Severe cash injection for troubled Acclaim - marks Doom look like a school day out. Forget everything you've learned in the real world.

You are a warrior named Turok, in the Saquin language meaning "Son of Stone," defender of the land, protector of the earth. Follow in the footsteps of your ancestors, make your way through the Lost Land fighting ferocious natives, dinosaurs, aliens, demons, and cyborgs, to find all of the pieces of the Chronoscepter and defeat the Campaigner. Although the story of Turok as told in the comic books from Gold Key, Valiant, and Acclaim is an interesting one, it's not as important to gameplay as you might expect, which is perfectly fine.

The idea behind this one-player, first-person adventure game is to survive the elements long enough to find all of the keys scattered in each level to gain access to each other level and beat the hell out of all the bad guys too. You can return through the gate of a level you've already explored, to find things you've missed or couldn't reach until you had the right weapon.

Watch out for dangers all around you -- the natives are restless, the dinosaurs are hungry, and the bosses, well, they'll make you wish you were playing Ecco the Dolphin instead. The overwhelming best features of this game pack are the controls, the environment, the map, and the weapons. Let me elaborate:. The Controls: If you own a Nintendo 64, you've probably played Super Mario 64 , and you've mastered how to make our plumber run, jump, turn, flip, and do all kinds of tricks using the cool new controller.

Well, forget all those Mario moves; there's now a better way to move through life -- the Turok way. The first 20 minutes I spent playing Turok, I got so dizzy trying to move around, it was like a chimp trying to fly a biplane.

The four yellow C buttons control your movement, while the control stick controls your line of sight. I naturally wanted to use the control stick to move, so in effect I kept accidentally moving Turok's head around instead of his body.

I wanted to punish the idiot that came up with such a screwed-up button system, but once I got the hang of it I realized the awesomeness of this control set -- to be able to simulate fluid head movements independently from directional movement. Look down at your feet as you cross a narrow bridge. Lean back to aim your Quad Rocket Launcher just a little bit higher and just a hair to the right. Aim perfectly and plunk an exploding arrow into the gut of a trooper on a high cliff 50 feet away.

It's virtual reality without the cumbersome suit and headset. The Environment: To describe what you'll see when you go exploring in the 8 stages of Turok would fill several dozen pages and still not do this game pack justice. This isn't just a game with jungle paths and rooms with doors -- you have to figure out ancient puzzles and find switches to reveal hidden paths and prizes. Dive down deep into a well, swim down a river, climb a story high cliff, jump from pillar to pillar, or crawl through a narrow winding tunnel.

And the enemies? Well they aren't just dumb objects simply waiting around the corner for you to come and find them. There's more about it in the Graphics section. The Map: Press the left shoulder L button to reveal this gem. The map is a see-through outline of your immediate surroundings, which will come in so handy that, like me, you may leave it on all the time.

It spins as you spin, moves as you move, and reveals your path a few feet in front of you and everywhere you've been, showing walls as solid lines and cliffs or any structure on a different plane as the one you're standing on as shaded lines. The map is essential for those tricky jumps when the slightest misstep can cause you to plummet to your doom. The Weapons: When you press the A or B buttons, a roulette wheel appears and spins to your left, letting you choose from your available weapons.

You're limited to a knife and bow at first, but in no time you'll have enough big guns to make a card-carrying NRA member jealous. Watch your ammo levels though; try to find the backpack so you can carry twice as many clips, arrows and shells.

Ahh, the heart and soul of a good game, the qualities that will determine if you buy a game from the locked sales counter or from the pile in the clearance bin. You won't be disappointed with Turok. Objects sometimes tend to look a little flat and grainy up close, but you won't have time to notice it. The hazy jungle sky blends evenly with the trees and cliffs, creating a life-like, fascinating environment. You can even follow the glare in your eyes as you look up at the sun.

And as any jungle should be, it's teeming with unseen life emitting roars, chirps and other various wildlife sounds from all around. Your enemies have an added touch of realism as well in both sights and sounds. Pump 6 rounds into a charging raptor before he rips at your gut , and watch him squirm and hear his gargled screeches, all to satisfy your taste for victory. From echoes in darkened corridors to squeals of jeep tires in the arena, your senses will keep you believing you're in another world.

The smooth controls and fluid all-around head movement make it a real innovation in home video game technology. I wish they would use this game engine and remake some of my other favorite games, like Shadows of the Empire, for instance. Anyway, there's an amazing variety of terrains in eight levels to explore, and a few secret rooms too, so it'll be a long time before you get bored with this one. It's designed for mature audiences, but if you like you can change the blood to green or simply turn it off to soften the carnage.

I recommend the following:. For those about Turok, we salute you! Turok: Dinosaur Hunter brings on some serious gun-totin', sauroid-slashin', rip-roarin' action with a cool polygonal look and some gory graphics.

Turok comes with a host of moves unavailable to standard corridor shooters--the ability to jump, climb, swim, or look around degrees. Added to these abilities are 10 outstanding weapons that make those in Doom look like pea shooters see "An Array of Armaments" on the next page. Turok tells the tale of a mystical warrior who's out to stop an evil overlord known as The Campaigner from altering time in nine levels of increasingly frantic and blood-soaked game-play.

As a matter of fact, you'll see more red than at the May Day Parade, with excellently depicted scenes of deaths and maiming parents--watch the rating on this one closely. There's also a slew of non-human aggressors, including genetically altered gorillas, leapin' lizards, and more dinosaurs than in the House of Representatives. You'll face raptors, triceratops, and tyrannosaurs, as you try to find keys and exits for each level.

The graphics are superb, with excellent polygonal motion-captured enemies. They glide in smoothly to attack you, and when you dispose of them, they fly back or die with a realism that's almost too gruesome to watch.

The misty jungles, abandoned temples, and eerie underwater sequences are all beautifully illustrated. The sounds are also top-notch. One other nice feature is the ability to ride on a dinosaur. While on the dinosaur you get to fire an additional mounted weapon.

Where Turok 2 suffers the most is level design. None of the levels are incredibly interesting. They consist mostly of passageways, ladders, doors, and breakaway walls. Backgrounds are not extremely detailed and just don't contain anything that will cause you to pause for a moment and admire in awe. Being able to go underwater is a plus as your vision becomes clouded at times, but that is not something that has not already been done before.

One other aspect of the game may be viewed as a problem by some and a welcome addition by others.
